    Could this be a DNS issue? – DHCP will supply the DNS, but there is nowhere on the static IP page to insert one

    I worked around this by doing a DHCP static mapping and it came good

    Thanks Ray, once I got it onto a happy AP, I was able to reflash it – it’s running 1.0.7 now – still doesn’t seem to like the Cisco/Meraki AP, but it’s working fine on the Billion

    OK – As a followup, I have got it all working with another AP, but it still won’t connect to the Cisco/Meraki. I suspect this is an ESP8266 firmware issue.

    Maybe this will get fixed later, but for now, I have a workaround.

    I may be seeing the same issue – my OG refuses to connect to my network – In my case I have a pair of Meraki WiFi basestations with a Cisco router doing the DHCP. It seems the ESP8266 has issues with Cisco DHCP servers. It connects very occasionally and gets a valid DHCP response, but usually not.

    If I fire up a generic Billion router and use its WiFi, it connects every time, but this doesn’t help with my network.

    I’ve tried 1.0.6 and 1.0.7 firmware, with no real difference

    I tried making a standalone SSID that was only on one of the APs, in case it was an issue with it trying to connect to the furthest-away AP, but that didn’t really help.

    Interestingly, I also could not flash the firmware using the method described in the FAQ – it would not go into boot loader mode.

    So – do I have a faulty OG, or is this just the way it is?
